Abstract

The degradation kinetics and migration pattern of chlorfenapyr in celery and soil at Lhasa and Pengzhou were investigated. A simple, rapid analytical method for the quantification of chlorfenapyr in celery and soil was developed using gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometer. The results indicated that the half-lives of chlorfenapyr in celeries and soils at Lhasa were 6.3 days and 12.8 days. While the half-lives of chlorfenapyr in celeries and soils at Pengzhou were 6.9 days and 20.4 days. The half-lives of chlorfenapyr in celeries and soils at Lhasa were shorter than that at Pengzhou, while the half-lives of chlorfenapyr in soils at Lhasa and Pengzhou were longer than that in celeries at Lhasa and Pengzhou. The final residues of chlorfenapyr in celeries at Lhasa and Pengzhou were 5.074 ± 0.144 mg/kg and 5.981 ± 0.234 mg/kg after 7 days of spraying, respectively. When chlofenapyr was sprayed to soils only, the average root concentration factor of chlorfenapyr were 3.57–4.02, while the average translocation factor of chlorfenapyr in leaves and stems were 0.28–0.38 and 0.20–0.25, respectively. Chlorfenapyr was easy to migrate from soil to the roots of celery, followed by leaves and stems. The limit value of chlorfenapyr in celery has not been specified in China’s National MRL standard (GB 2763 in National food safety standard-maximum residue limits for pesticides in food. Standard, Beijing, 2021), this study was useful to draw up the limit values of chlorfenapyr residues in celery at different elevations.
